There is no end to the amount of pain that your credit report can cause you. If you have a bad credit history this is something that can follow you around and wreak havoc on your life without you even knowing it. Do you know how many people did not get a job because their credit report was awful? Thousands and how many do you think realized that that was the reason they did not get a call back? I would venture to say a big fat zip. Credit counts for everything nowadays and it is only going to count for more in the future.
Whenever you apply for a job, an apartment, a loan or for credit your report is likely going to get looked at. No one wants to get involved with an unreliable person, especially those who are going to have to depend on this person for some important reason, like a rent check or to keep their business running. That is why people with bad credit find themselves getting the short end of the stick all of the time.
If you have found yourself getting rejected an awful lot lately you may want to sneak a peek at your credit report to see if that is the reason. Even if you have never owned a credit card you may still have bad credit. They are not the only things that get reported to the credit bureaus. If you have any bills in your name, car insurance, heating, anything at all, whether you make your payments or not are all finding their way onto your credit report.
Everyone should be checking their report at least once a year to see how they are doing. If you want to get yours you can visit Equifax, Experian or TransUnion online today to get your free copy.
